Later C19 detached house or villa, occupied in 1899 by John Jones. The quality of the building reflects the growth of the local middle class during the Woollen Industry boom in the later C19.

Painted timber sashes, cut stone voussoirs and slate sills, generally 6-pane but the outer 4 panes narrow. Centre first floor window has plate glass sashes. Similar voussoirs to recessed central doorway with timber reveals, containing painted panelled timber door with glazed upper panel and narrow overlight. Cut stone stacks with paired, yellow terracotta pots. Replacement plastic rainwater goods. R end has timber bargeboard and 2 small marginally-glazed windows set to L. Contemporary lower rear extension, in matching materials, has, on this side, 9-pane sash, former door beneath timber lintel to ground floor, with marginal glazed sash set to R above. Matching gable end to L. Extension to rear L has canted angle, projecting L of the gable end.
